What Are the Health Effects of Chloramine Exposure?
Exposure to chloramine gases can cause a variety of health effects, depending on the concentration and duration of exposure. Short-term exposure may lead to respiratory issues, such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. It can also irritate the eyes, nose, and throat. Long-term exposure or high concentrations may cause more severe respiratory damage and exacerbate conditions like asthma. Skin contact with chloramine solutions can result in irritation and dermatitis.
